Chapter 57 The Night Detective 2

When Jian Yu and Ge Hui were fighting, Lu Zheng had already realized that something was wrong, the two were fighting so loudly, not to mention the patrolling guards, they didn't even see a waiter, how could this be possible?

Lu Zheng looked at Jian Yu anxiously, even if he didn't know martial arts, he could see that the two were almost on equal footing, and even Jian Yu was gradually losing the upper hand.He wanted to help, but he was afraid that the more he helped, the more he could help. At this moment, he saw that Jian Yu seemed to be invincible, and he made a wrong step and fell into the water.Lu Zheng was startled, and quickly jumped into the water.

The water in this small lake is not clear, Lu Zheng struggled to find Jian Yu's figure in the water, and suddenly a hand was stretched out from the side, Lu Zheng was so frightened that he almost choked on the water, but he looked into a pair of familiar eyes, he loosened He took a deep breath and followed Jian Yu to swim out.

This lake is running water, which is connected to the moat of the inner city. This is what they had found out before they came.

The two climbed up the embankment wetly, the spring was cold, and the wind felt bitingly cold, Lu Zheng asked tremblingly, "How are you...?"

Although Jian Yu was pale, she was much better than him, so she just nodded.

"Too...too cold...Ah Choo!" Lu Zheng rubbed his nose, "Let's... find a place to change our clothes first."

It's not far from the British government. Lu Zheng arranged for someone to be at the corner gate early on. Seeing that Jian Yu agreed, he quickly pulled him up, but seeing Jian Yu frowned while holding his stomach, he reacted: "Are you injured? ?”

"It's okay." Jian Yu said, "Let's go."

Lu Zheng helped him with some worry, and the two walked to the corner door of the British government. Lu Zheng knocked, and the corner door was opened with a gap, revealing half of Liu Zhi's face: "Master?"

"it's me."

Liu Zhi opened the corner door, saw that the two were wet, but did not make any sound, saw that they had all come in, and locked the corner door again.Willow Branch led the way with a lantern. The corner gate was not far from Zhu Tan's residence, but it arrived soon.

The yard was quiet, Liu Zhi had already sent the maids to sleep, not even the incense sticks left behind.But the three of them were still light-footed, and it wasn't until they entered the door that Lu Zheng took a big breath.

The earth dragon was burning in the room, it was warm, Lu Zheng's stiff hands and feet felt a little bit, he helped Jian Yu to sit down, and ordered Liu Zhi to get the wound medicine and clothes.

Liu Zhi responded, and said again: "You two are wet, why don't you cook ginger soup and drink a bowl to get rid of the cold."

"It's still your thoughtfulness. Take it and put it in the outside room."

After Liu Zhi left, Lu Zheng quickly took off his wet clothes. Seeing that Jian Yu hadn't moved, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you still doing in a daze, isn't it uncomfortable?"

Jian Yu looked away: "Turn around."

Lu Zheng looked at himself, and said with some amusement, "They're all men, why are you ashamed?" That's what he said, but he still turned around obediently.

Hearing the rustling voice behind, Lu Zheng couldn't help but said: "Are you injured? It's not convenient for Fang, do you want to help?"

The movement stopped, followed by Jian Yu's low voice: "No need."

Lu Zheng shrugged his shoulders, wiped it casually with a towel, and put on clean clothes, but there was nothing he could do with his hair, so he had to loosen it and put it on his shoulders, after doing all this, Lu Zheng asked: "Are you all right? Hearing that there was no movement behind him, he hurriedly turned his head, and found that Jian Yu was leaning against the bedpost with his eyes closed and his face pale, with a big gash in his abdomen bleeding.

Lu Zheng didn't care about anything else, so he quickly took the wound medicine and applied it to him, probably because of the stimulation of the medicine. While applying the medicine, Jian Yu woke up again, struggling: "I... I will do it myself..."

"Stop trying to be brave!" Lu Zheng slapped his hand away, and said angrily, "When you come by yourself, all the blood will flow out."

Jian Yu stopped talking, just watched him treat the wound carefully, and after all the wounds were treated, Lu Zheng let out a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and scolded: "Why do I run into you every time? Are you giving me medicine?"

The corner of Jian Yu's mouth curled up, and he murmured in a low voice: "Because in this world... only you are willing to help me with medicine..."

Lu Zheng was packing up the medicine and bandages, but he didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

"Nothing." Jian Yu said.

Lu Zheng put all his things in the outer room, and helped Jian Yu onto the bed: "You can sleep here tonight!" He said before him, "Don't grab the couch with me, you are a wounded person, do you know?" After finishing speaking Pressing the person on the bed extremely forcefully, "Go to sleep!"

Jian Yu could only watch silently as Lu Zheng shook off the quilt and covered him with careless hands, and asked him again and again "Is it cold?" "Would you like to drink water?" Come in, put it on the small table next to his bed, muttering, "If you are thirsty, you can reach out to get it... Forget it, you should call me if you are thirsty! Oh, you can call me if you want to come out... If you feel uncomfortable... It's useless to call me, I have to call you a doctor..."

Jian Yu had never felt this kind of nagging concern, he looked at Lu Zheng's figure almost greedily, the warmth of the room seemed to enter his lungs along his limbs and bones, and then warmed his heart again, in this kind of situation Under the circumstances, he slowly fell asleep.

Lu Zheng didn't get a response after talking for a long time, turned around and saw that Jian Yu had fallen asleep, and suddenly said angrily: "I didn't say hello when I fell asleep..." He also yawned. In ancient times, it seemed that he hadn't gone to bed so late for a long time, so he also fell headfirst on the couch and fell asleep directly.

When Liuzhi came back from cooking the ginger soup, she could only hear the slight snoring in the room. She opened the curtain and found that both of them were asleep, so she could only put the ginger soup on the table and blow out the candles.

When she packed up and returned to her room, the east side had already turned white. As soon as the willow branch opened the courtyard door, she saw Ji Xiang standing on the porch, the lantern was not lit, and the mottled shadows of the trees shone like ghosts.

Liu Zhi pressed Luan Tiao's chest, forced a smile and said, "Sister, you wake up at night? Why don't you light a lantern?"

Ji Xiang said lightly: "The young master just came back, right?"

The willow branch brushed past her and walked towards her own room. Hearing the words, she said, "What did sister say? Why can't I understand?"

Ji Xiang grabbed her arm and said coldly, "Don't hide it from me, I've seen it all."

Liu Zhi stopped, turned her head to the side and said, "What does sister want to say?"

"I'm telling you, that's not the young master!" Ji Xiang grabbed her arm vigorously, his beautiful face was full of madness, "He's a monster!"

Liu Zhi's face turned cold: "Could it be that my sister is sick, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Ji Xiang smiled bitterly and said: "The young master likes to eat salty and fragrant things, not sweet, but bright colors. Although he always behaves fiercely, he is the most protective. The young master promised Ah Ren to help him find his relatives, and promised Jin Sister Lu wants to help her get rid of her slave status and give her a dowry, so that she can get married!" She stared at the willow branch, her voice hoarse, "But Ah Ren was sold, and Sister Jinlu was sold. One... the next one is me!"

Liu Zhi covered Ji Xiang's mouth, and lowered his voice to warn her: "Sister is sick and needs to rest, I'm glad I heard these words, if outsiders hear it, I'm afraid Madam won't be able to spare my sister!"

"Ma'am..." Ji Xiang looked at Liu Zhi sarcastically, "Liu Zhi, you are a smart person. Do you think Madam won't know about things that even I found out?"

Liu Zhi's heart sank, she turned around and ran into Lu Zheng's yard, but suddenly there was a sharp pain from the back of her neck, her vision went dark and she passed out.

After Lu Zheng woke up, Jian Yu had disappeared long ago. He just left a note stating what he found last night. Lu Zheng frowned: "Another person?" He was startled, "Dual personality?!"

Lu Zheng had a vague impression that Yun once said that Princess Shanyang was pregnant with twins, but because the child was born prematurely, only one of the two children survived.All these years, Ge Hui has acted absurdly, neither studying nor practicing martial arts, and Princess Shanyang has never taught him a lesson. Everyone sympathizes with Princess Shanyang and thinks that she has lost a child, so they put twice as much motherly love on her. Ge returned to a person.

However, Lu Zheng felt that Princess Shanyang was probably afraid that people would discover Ge Hui's abnormality. After all, this phenomenon was called one body with two souls in ancient times, and was regarded as the upper body of an evil ghost, especially because Ge Hui's other personality was still so cruel. Bloodthirsty, so almost all of Ge Hui's servants are mute slaves, and the young mistress Xian's mental illness may be caused by fear because of discovering these things.

If this is the case, I am afraid that there will be an explanation for the case of Mianchun's murder. I am afraid that the concubine was killed because of some reason that triggered Ge Hui's other personality, and Ge Hui's master personality did not know. The existence of a second personality explains why he is obsessed with the murder of Mianchun, but his mother, Princess Shanyang, is unwilling to bring it up.

Lu Zheng felt enlightened, and then felt a little depressed. This is not in modern times. Even if the case is solved, it may be useless. Besides, Ge Hui has a dual personality, so he has no idea that this is the case he committed.

At this moment, someone knocked lightly on the door of the room, and Ji Xiang walked in with a few maids carrying toilet utensils.

Lu Zheng froze for a moment: "Where's the willow branch?"

Ji Xiang smiled: "Sister Liu Zhi may be tired, but my servant saw her sleeping soundly, so I didn't call her. If you want to find her, my servant will call her now."

Lu Zheng just remembered that Liu Zhi went to bed late last night in order to wait for them, and suddenly felt a little guilty: "I was negligent, don't call her, let her sleep well."

Ji Xiang smiled lightly: "Got it." Saying that, she asked the two little maids to step back, and brought the towel to Lu Zheng. While Lu Zheng was washing, her eyes flashed, and a pair of scissors slowly fell into her palm .

Just when she was about to stab, Ah Fu's voice suddenly came from outside.

"Master! His Royal Highness Chu is here!"
